Film as Artificial Intelligence
This article considers film as a form of artificial intelligence (AI). This non-anthropocentric hypothesis was first formulated in 1946 by filmmaker and theorist Jean Epstein and regards film as the thinking performance of a technical apparatus, the cinematograph, which is a manifestation of machine thinking based on the holistic entanglement of thought and world, film and philosophy. The article pursues an enquiry into ‘thinking’: one of the mos…
Reisen und Vergleichen
In their travelogues, both Humboldt and Krusenstern employ global comparisons as powerful and versatile epistemological devices. While these comparisons usually fall back upon Eurocentric ideas of art, politics, society, and beauty – thereby frequently establishing European superiority over the chosen objects of comparison – they also transform formerly unrelated pieces of information into coherent knowledge concerning the world as a whole. This …
Holy Matter
Sara Ritchey’s book ranges from the abbeys of the twelfth-century Rhineland, and the Franciscans in Italy, to the Carthusians of the early fifteenth century. The common threads linking these examples are, in Ritchey’s assessment, the much-neglected ‘medieval doctrine of the re-creation of the world’ and, as a facet of this, the importance of trees. Re-creation in this interpretation happened at the moment of Christ’s incarnation or crucifixion an…
Religion, Household-State Authority, and the Defense of "Collapsed Ladies" in Early Jacobean England
This article argues that specific features among the early Jacobean Catholic community enabled a reevaluation of the obedience owed by wives to their husbands and of the household-state analogy. At the forefront of this development was a new category of Catholic "collapsed ladies" who actively rejected state Protestantism. Such women were potentially disruptive in a period in which the stability of the household-state analogy was being tested by …

During the past twenty-five years, Ireland has seen an explosion of women's fiction - hundreds of published works that reimagine the inherited literary traditions and the social contexts of women's li
Access to the Divine
In Orthodox Last Judgements in sixteenth-century Moldavia, both Adam and Eve appear as saintly intercessors on behalf of mankind. The presence of these suppliant figures, on either side of the throne of hetimasia (Plate i), suggests that Orthodoxy and Catholicism differed significantly in their evaluations of the gender implications of the Fall. In medieval Catholicism the portrayal of a nimbed figure of Eve, or even of Adam, was inconceivable. I…
Single women in early modern England
In 1584, fearing death, Eleanor Cumpayne, a single woman in the parish of Halesowen (Worcestershire), commended her soul to almighty God and her body to the earth, divided her sheep and money amongst her godchildren, relatives and friends, and placed particular trust in her cousin, Margery Cumpayne, who, amongst other duties, was to bestow the sum of 20s at her funeral. Unlike most testators, Eleanor Cumpayne survived this fearful illness, dying …
